Yes, it is terribly out of date, being written when udev was at version 016!! That is soooo last month! :-> > Did it.

Also, don't forget Dirk's suggestion regarding BUS=="usb" instead of scsi. > No external disk... > $ udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sda) > no record for 'sda' in database > (...) > The same for sdb... Yes, this I would expect now, because you are not creating sdX device nodes anymore. You would need to use the device nodes that you are creating. You could use the SYMLINK target instead of changing the name. Something like: BUS=="usb" ... NAME="%k", SYMLINK="plextor_memstick%n" This would keep the default sdX device nodes, but give you symlinks for your persistent names. -Richard -- [email protected] mailing list
